Chapter 8: The Morning After Is Always Interesting

Axel stood out on the balcony of his small apartment enjoying the morning dawn air, smoke was encircling his head as it created a grey halo around him, the cancer stick was hanging from his lower lip as he admired the new dawn. His gaze glanced back faintly back as his eyes fell on the sleeping blond angel in his bed, a sheet draped over his figure, hiding his dainty figure and everything he had fallen for. Lips pulled back into a light smile as finished a final drag on the stick, putting it out as he slinked back into the room.

Time that sleeping beauty was awake…his mom is probably freaked about where her son has been all night

His hand softly touched against Roxas' back that caused the boy to flinch in his sleep, "No more Namine, go find someone else who wants its 24/7, Axel could only laugh as he as he pulled the boy into his lap, faintly kissing at his lips.

"But Roxas…you promised you'd give me a quickie before I sent you on home…you going to break that promise?" his voice was playfully sweet as if he was playing the boy to wake him up, "Or do I have to start the party without, and get you off before you can stop me?"

Roxas' instincts said slug him, slug him hard, but his hands reacted differently as he stretched them up on either side of the man's head before wrapping them around his head, kissing the man chastely as he felt a slide of tongue, "Another time, no more then one or two rounds of fun in the bed on the first date," he seemed so assured of himself as he pecked him as his hands moved down his arms.

"You sure know how to make a gay man turned on," his fingers tressed through Roxas' as he brought them up as he softly kissed them, "Okay little man, time that you were home, and I'll see you at school Monday."

He pushed him up and off him as he made sure to not watch his naked backside stand revealed to him that just screamed, come on, one more round…I'm sure it'll be worth it as he made an excuse to go find his keys to drive the kid home. Roxas could tell from the telltale need to nail him again blush on his face, that something was up, "…He so wanted me right then and there," he couldn't help but chuckle at his dirty thought as he pulled the sheet tighter around his waist as he got dressed.

"Hey, you ever going to stop smoking, or is it just customary for the guy to smoke after nailing the girl as a sign of getting the taste of her out of his mouth," Roxas cockily sauntered passed the man as he placed his hand on the handle of the guy's car, "Hmmm?"

Axel scoffed as he angrily put the cigarette out in the drive, "Well excuse me if it's the only way of easing tension in my life, I'm driving you home and your Mom is liable to flip that some strange guy you've only known about a week is driving you home," he kicked at the tires of his car.

"Axel, its fine, she doesn't give two looks at me when I came home after Namine decided to neck me, she only knows what I tell her because she's hardly home to be a Mom at all," Roxas got on the defensive, "What does it matter to you?"

Axel reached in his pocket for another cigarette as his hands shakily went to light the cancer stick, but Roxas' hand meeting his face stopped him, "…Please, don't think about my Mom…she doesn't even care I exist. She never cared when I was little," as his eyes watched the cigarette burn in the drive, he couldn't help but think of the times he had been torched by such an item, "Please stop with the cigarettes, I don't want to kiss an ashtray…I'd rather kiss someone that makes me scream out into the night I'm madly in love with the most sweetest guy in the world."

Roxas felt himself slipping down along the side of the car as his eyes danced up to the skies as soft tears started to come, "…She burns me."

"Come on, every parent is an ass at some point in their kids lives that burns them," Axel sat down alongside the boy as he gathered him up in his arms.

He shook his head as he pulled up his sleeve and revealed his wrists to the man, "Roxas…what the…"

"Like I said, she doesn't care I exist, she wants things for me that I don't want, and if I don't live up to her expectations, she punishes me," everything came to the surface in that moment, but Axel didn't want to dwell on it as he helped him up, put him in the car, and they quietly drove for Roxas' house.

Axel drove as if he knew where he was going till they reached the house and he helped him to the front door; no one answered the door and it didn't seem locked as Roxas opened it without problems. Something was almost screaming to Axel, don't let him go in alone, he's walking into a Hell you can't save him from…the Dragon never went to sleep last night…she's been waiting up for him. Don't let him go in there.

Roxas was ready to leave him, and just believe they would meet up again at school, but something didn't feel right, "Roxas…wait," he didn't want to sound like he knew something the blond didn't know.

"Whatever it is…it can wait till Monday," Roxas brushed him off as he walked into the darkened home, it was home and there was no changing it.

I wanted you to stay with me…

"So, where have you been all night, and don't tell me you were with Namine," her face was plastered, and her eyes glazed with the familiar sickening alcoholic stare, "…At least one of you had the decency to let me know where the Hell you were."

Struggling groans, and grunts seemed to awaken from the dungeon cave of the Dragon as a man's voice tore out from it, "Just send him sprawling on his ass already and get yours back to bed, I'm waiting for you, and this deal isn't settled yet," Roxas knew he had walked into Hell after he came through that door, "Come on, I'm not going to wait forever for you woman."

Roxas was never one for confrontations as he pushed past his drunken Mother who attempted to make a grab at him to send him back down the stairs, but he had the upper hand as he walked into his Mom's room, pulling the man out of the bed, "What do you want, you little prick?"

"You listen to me, you don't my Mom, you don't know me, you don't what kind of fucked up life you are walking into like it doesn't phase you, I'm asking you this once, and nicely, stay, the fuck, away from my Mother," he released the man as turned on his heels to head to the sanctuary of his room.

A war of words erupted in the hall and stairway between his Mom and her "friend" as he slid his back against the back of the door of his room, but his Hell had just begun, a voice called out from the bed, "So, you're the bastard who is sleeping with my man?"

Bad dreams are meant to stay in our subconscious minds, they were never meant to come into our lives, if they ever did, what can be done to rid ourselves of them and make them insufficient to the reality standing in front of us? Roxas' mind was asking this same question as a mullet styled dirty blond sat in the dark of the boy's room, shifting on the mattress of the bed as he stood, stalking up towards Roxas.

"Wh-Wh-What business is it to you? He's not a piece of property, he's a human being," Roxas tried to stand his ground as he watched the man click the inside of his cheek as he cockily chuckled at the boy's words.

"Oh boy, he's really worked you over, he is truly a piece of work…"his flashed an angry stare, one that burned with jealous, lust, and burning passion to destroy anyone that tried to tell him other wise, "…What was it he did to you to make you feel so special to him?"

Roxas felt nausea rising in his stomach, "Well kid…what was the first thing that told you, you were meant to be?"

"…The first time he kissed me in the boy's bathroom at school," he tried not to falter in his answer, or show he was absolutely frightened of this lustful monster staring him down, "I thought it was a joke, or just some sadistic way of him trying to assert his way…"

Dirty blond stood watching the boy faltering, he could see barriers falling, and breaking, "Did he tell you about my sadistic little prank using prank underpants? He blew it out of portion," his smile was almost as devious as Namine's, it was sickening to watch, "…He's known for blowing everything out of proportion just to make sure that people feel sorry for him."

"Get…the Hell…out of my house," Roxas teeth were clenched in rage, if a dagger could've appeared in his hands, he would've been at the boy's throat, slashed it open, and stabbed him numerous times to erase that smug face from his mind, "…And you WILL stay away from Axel, you understand me?"

The man's face crooked into a grin that could make a crocodile ready to snap the man's face off; his hands clutched around Roxas' collar as he held him close, his breath was reeking of cheap liquor, "You can have him…for now, but remember…even angels fall from GRACE!" he dragged the blond to the open window where he dangled him out of the bedroom window, "HERE'S YOUR FIRST FLYING LESSON LITTLE BLOND ANGEL!"

"HELP! HELP! SOMEONE! HELP ME!" Roxas' voice was struck by the cold air of the mid morning as he struggled to bring himself back inside, "SOMEONE! PLEASE! HELP ME!"

"Scream all you want little man…that sweet piece of fiery ass is going to be mine, and you, you're just going to be another mark on the list of suicidal teens from dysfunctional homes," the man's hands let him go as Roxas' grappled with the rain gutter; he could feel it creaking as the man watched the boy struggling, "…All good little angels have to fly solo at one time or another."

He turned away from the window as he headed down the stairway and straight out the front door, his eyes slowly came upon Axel's, "Nice little toy you've latched your self onto, but as you know…all toys break, eventually," he patted his shoulder as he worked down the pathway; his eyes faintly gazed up at the struggling little angel on the rain gutter as his fingers made an image of a fake gun, "See you around…Blond Angel."
